ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Color Lights Flashing holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Color Lights Flashing has 185 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Strobe it!'s written reviews are positive against 80% of Color Lights Flashing's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
